- Yes they are quite common everywhere
However these are not considered as good for growing in residential places according to Indian as well as chinese mythology
- I happened to observe many cactus species from cactus garden in Stanford Univ. campus in California last year. Now I will be able to name some of my photos from that collection hopefully. Cactus flowers are always very beautiful. Regarding the other info. I have heard similar to waht you have said. Succulents and thorny plants are not welcome by many near the house esp. in the balconies....
- All Cactii are a new world species, and I believe barring one all are found only in the Americas.
This one exception is I think found is in Africa and was carried by birds or sea or in some other way
